It’s bigger than Texas and growing. The way to clean it up now is to catch it with nets. That is both costly and slow. Instead, the Ocean Cleanup Project proposes a 62-mile-long floating barrier that would use natural currents to trap trash. If next year’s trials succeed, a full cleanup operation would aim to start in 2020. It could reduce the trash by 42 % over 10 years.‎ Easy-On Shoes In 2012, Matthew Walzer, a high school student with a disability, sent a note to Nike. “My dream is to go to college,” he wrote, “without having to worry about someone coming to tie my shoes every day.” Nike assigned a design team to the challenge. This year, they came out with their solution: the FlyEase. The basketball shoe can be fastened with one hand. A pair of Nike FlyEase shoes sells for $ 130.‎ An Airport for Drones (无人机)‎ As Amazon, Google, and others get ready for drone delivery service, there is one big question: What kinds of home bases will their drones have? Rwanda, in Africa, may have the answer. There, workers will soon start work on three “drone ports”. The goal is to make it easier to transport food, medical supplies, electronics, and other goods through the hilly countryside. Construction is set to be completed in 2020.‎ ‎21. What’s the advantage of the Oceans Vacuum?‎ A. It can tear plastic into pieces. B. It can grow year by year.‎ C. It can be a money-saver. D. It can be put into wide use soon.‎ 22. What do we know about Nike?‎ A. It offers free shoes to the disabled.‎ B. It provides customer friendly services.‎ C. It is designing new shoes frequently.‎ D. It responded to Matthew’s request passively.‎ 23. Why is Rwanda setting up “drone ports”?‎ A. Because they are receptive to new technology.‎ B. Because they’re easier to construct than roads.‎ C. Because there are too many drones.‎ D. Because road travel there is rough.‎ B I grew up in a house where the TV was seldom turned on and with one wall in my bedroom entirely lined with bookshelves, most of my childhood was spent on books I could get hold of. In fact, I grew up thinking of reading as natural as breathing and books unbelievably powerful in shaping perspectives by creating worlds we could step into, take part in and live in.‎ With this unshakable belief, I, at fourteen, decided to become a writer. Here too, reading became useful. Every writer starts off knowing that he has something to say, but being unable to find the right ways to say it. He has to find his own voice by reading widely and discovering which parts of the writers he agrees or disagrees with, or agrees with so strongly that it reshapes his own world. He cannot write without loving to read, because only through reading other people’s writing can one discover what works, what doesn’t and, in the end, together with lots of practice, what voice he has.‎ Now I am in college, and have come to realize how important it is to read fiction. As a law student, my reading is in fact limited to subject matter----the volume of what I have to read for classes every week means there is little time to read anything else. Such reading made it all the clearer to me that I live in a very small part in this great place called life. Reading fiction reminds me that there is life beyond my own. It allows me to travel across the high seas and along the Silk Road, all from the comfort of my own armchair, to experience, though secondhand, exciting experiences that I wouldn’t necessarily be able to have in my lifetime. 24. What can be inferred about the author as a child?‎ A. He never watched TV. B. He read what he had to.‎ C. He found reading unbelievable. D. He considered reading part of his life.‎ 25. The underlined word “voice” in the second paragraph most probably means “__________”.‎ A. an idea B. a sound quality C. a way of writing D. a world to write about 26. What effect does reading have on the author?‎ A. It helps him to realize his dream.‎ B. It opens up a wider world for him.‎ C. It makes his college life more interesting.‎ D. It increases his interest in worldwide travel.‎ 27. Which of the following can be the best title of this text?‎ A. Why do I read? B. How do I read?‎ C. What do I read? D. When do I read?‎ C Protect Children from Cyber-bullying(网络欺凌)‎ When you think about bullying, you might think of a child being bullied by another in the schoolyard. As more young people have access to computers and cell phones, traditional bullying has gone digital, which has not yet gained awareness in Chinese parents.‎ Cyber-bullying, first invented by Canadian educator Bill Belsey, is the use of the Internet and related technologies to harm other people, in an intentional, repeated, and unfriendly manner. It involves threatening text messages, the spread of online rumors on social networking sites, and intentionally keeping someone out of an online group. Cyber-bullying is at an all-time high in the US. According to a study from the US Department of Justice, more than 43% of teenagers report being victims of cyber-bullying.‎ Compared to face-to-face bullying, cyber-bullying is considered to have a worse emotional effect on the victims, and kids could feel more desperate and depressed. Severe, long-term or frequent cyber-bullying can leave victims at greater risk for anxiety, depression, and other disorders. Research says that cyber-bullying victims were almost twice as likely to have attempted suicide compared to youths who had not experienced it.‎ In traditional schoolyard bullying, at least home is a safe place for the victims. But cyber-bullying is endless---it could happen anytime. Moreover, in the digital world, bullying is much easier, as a bully can pick on people with a much lower risk of being caught. Actually, cyber-bullying has become a worldwide issue. In the US, as several teens committed suicide because of cyber-bullying, some schools set rules to punish cyberbullies. Laws to punish cyber-bullying have been introduced in some states. In China, cyber-bullying is still considered by many parents and educators as a problem that involves physical contact. However, as cell phones and laptops are becoming common equipment for teenagers, social interactions have increasingly moved from personal contact to virtual contact. Cyber-bullying is spreading faster than expected.‎ For schools and parents, safety rules should be set in the virtual world for kids, such as telling them not to let out anything to a stranger. Active steps should be taken to make the public aware of the seriousness of this problem, because it would be too late to take measures after tragedy strikes.‎ 28. According to the writer, which of the following is cyber-bullying?‎ A. Saying unkind words to classmates.‎ B. Attacking one’s computer with virus.‎ C. Stopping someone from joining a club.‎ D. Threatening someone in text messages.‎ 29. Compared to traditional bullying, cyber-bullying _________.‎ A. can be found out easily B. hasn’t been punished by law A. can cause more lasting sufferings B. has made twice more youths killed 29. According to the passage, _________.‎ A. cyber-bullying first started in Canada B. measures should be taken against cyber-bullying C. there is no escape from cyber-bullying for students D. Chinese students are not facing serious cyber-bullying 30. Who is this passage mainly intended for?‎ A. Parents and educators. B. Victims and parents.‎ C. Teachers and students. D. Researchers and victims.‎ D We can achieve knowledge either actively or passively. We achieve it actively by direct experience, by testing and proving an idea, or by reasoning.‎ We achieve knowledge passively by being told by someone else. Most of the learning that takes place in the classroom and the kind that happens when we watch TV or read newspapers or magazines is passive. Conditioned as we are to passive learning, it’s not surprising that we depend on it in our everyday communication with friends and co-workers. Unfortunately, passive learning has a serious problem. It makes us tend to accept what we are told even when it is little more than hearsay and rumor.‎ Did you ever play the game Rumor? It begins when one person writes down a message but doesn’t show it to anyone. Then the person whispers it, word for word, to another person. That person, in turn, whispers it to still another, and so on, through all the people playing the game. The last person writes down the message word for word as he or she hears it. Then the two written statements are compared. Typically, the original message has changed.‎ That’s what happens in daily life. The simple fact that people repeat a story in their own words changes the story. Then, too, most people listen imperfectly. And many enjoy adding their own creative touch to a story, trying to improve on it, stamping (打上标记) it with their own personal style. Yet those who hear it think they know.‎ This process is also found among scholars and authors: A statement of opinion by one writer may be re-stated as fact by another, who may in turn be quoted by yet another; and this process may continue, unless it occurs to someone to question the facts on which the original writer based his opinion or to challenge the interpretation he placed upon those facts.‎ ‎32. According to the passage, passive learning may occur in __________.‎ A. doing a medical experiment B. solving a math problem C. visiting an exhibition D. doing scientific reasoning ‎33. The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refers to __________.‎ A. active learning B. knowledge C. communication D. passive learning 34. The author mentions the game Rumor to show that __________.‎ A. a message may be changed when being passed on B. a message should be delivered in different ways C. people may have problems with their sense of hearing D. people tend not to believe in what they know as rumor 35. What can we infer from the passage?‎ A. Active learning is less important.‎ B. Passive learning may not be reliable.‎ C. Active learning occurs more frequently.‎ D. Passive learning is not found among scholars.‎ 第二节 根据短文内容,从短文后选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项 Forgiveness To forgive is a virtue,but no one has ever said it is easy.When someone has deeply hurt you. it can be extremely difficult to let go of your hate.However,forgiveness is possible,and it can be surprisingly beneficial to your physical and mental health. People who forgive show less sadness, anger and stress and more hopefulness,according to a recent research.‎ ‎36 Try the following steps:‎ Calm yourself. 37 You can take a couple of breaths and think of something that gives you pleasure: a beautiful scene in nature,or someone you love.‎ Don't wait for an apology.Many times the person who hurt you does not intend to apologize. They may have wanted to hurt you or they just don't see things the same way. 38 Keep in mind that forgiveness does not necessarily mean becoming friends again with the person who upset you.‎ Take the control away from your offender(冒犯者). Rethinking about your hurt gives power to the person who caused you pain. Instead of focusing on your wounded feelings, learn to look for the love,beauty and kindness around you.‎ ‎39 If you understand your offender,you may realize that he or she was acting out of unawareness,fear,and even love.You may want to write a letter to yourself from your offender's point of view.‎ Don't forget to forgive yourself. 40 But it can rob you of your self-confidence if you don't do it.‎ A.Why should you forgive? B.How should you start to forgive?‎ C.Recognize the benefits of forgiveness.D.Try to see things from your offender's angle.‎ E.For some people,forgiving themselves is the biggest challenge.‎ F.To make your anger die away,try a simple stress-management technique.‎ G. If you wait for people to apologize,you could be waiting an awfully long time.‎ 第三部分 语言知识运用(共两节,满分 45 分)第一节(共 20 小题;每小题 1.5 分,满分 30 分)‎ 阅读下面的短文,从短文后各题所给的 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项 The telephone rang. It was my sister, who was working in an elementary school. She told me she used my crayon 41 again.‎ Over 40 years ago, I sat in my first-grade classroom 42 the teacher asked me to go to the principal’s office. I was shy.

The principal, 56 seeing all my artwork done in black crayon, assumed that I had deep emotional problems. He had called my parents in to 57 “my problem ” and to suggest some psychological counseling (心理咨询). I was too afraid to say that I only had one crayon left. I was too shy to ask for my “shared” crayons back Because I didn’t 58‎ up for myself, others assumed the worst.‎ Today my sister tells her students, “Don’t be 59‎ to speak up.

Now these feathered geniuses are given a job: Six crows have been trained to pick up rubbish in the Puy du Fou historical theme park in western France. Whenever the six crows put cigarette ends or other small 61 (piece) of trash in a special container, it offers a treat to reward the crows 62 their efforts.‎ The idea came from one of the park’s employees, Christophe. In 2012, the theme park held a show during which the crows picked up roses and brought them to a “princess”. It was the show 63 inspired him. Since then, six crows 64 (raise) and trained to do the same with rubbish.‎ The training system is similar to the one for testing crows’ intelligence,‎ ‎65‎ a food dispenser(分发器) gives away a food reward when a crow ‎66 (correct) performs a task.‎ Christophe also introduced other species of birds to go through the training.‎ ‎67‎ ‎(compare)‎ with other birds, crows are much cleverer.‎ The purpose of 68‎ ‎(train) the crows is to educate the people to reflect on themselves.‎ Since the birds are able to protect the environment, we need to care about it too. “It is ‎69‎ funny way to remind people not 70 (throw) the rubbish everywhere,” said Christophe.‎ 第四部分:写作(共两节,满分 35 分)‎ 第一节 短文改错(共 10‎ 小题,每小题 1 分,满分 10‎ 分)‎ 假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文,请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。文中共有 ‎10 处语言错误,每句中最多有两处。错误涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。‎ 增加:在缺词处加一个漏字符号(∧),并在其下面写出该加的词。‎ 删除:把多余的词用斜线(\)划掉。‎ 修改:在错的词下划一横线,并在该词下面写出修改后的词。‎ 注意:‎ 1. 每处错误及其修改均仅限一词;‎ 2. 只允许修改 10 处,多者(从第 11 处起)不计分。‎ Hearing a news that the 2022 Winter Olympics would be hold in China, I felt very excited. It struck to me how I learned skating when I was a child. At 7, I began to go crazy about skating, like all my friend. At the beginning, it was extremely tough for me to keep my balance. I always fall over on the ground, as a result which,I thought I had no talent for skating. So I gradually lost confidence and became impatient. The more impatient I was, the more terrible I did.

I’m glad I can help with it.‎ Mobile payment can be received almost anywhere in China. For example, when my family eat out in a restaurant, see a doctor, or pay electricity and water bills, we’d rather make payments with our mobile phones.‎ With the widespread use of mobile payment, Wechat or Alipay is the most convenient and ‎ safest way to pay. We rarely need to carry a wallet or cash at all. Besides, never will we worry about getting fake notes or having to count change. In short, mobile payment has greatly changed people's life in China.‎ Personally, I think mobile payment should be encouraged. First, it has won over consumers with its convenience. Another advantage is that there are often discounts if you make mobile payment. The reason is that major online payment platforms are competing to have more consumers use their service.‎ I hope my explanation can be of some help to you. Wish you good luck.‎ Yours faithfully,‎ Li Hua 听力文本 Text 1‎ W:Hi.Welcome back.
